sp300 yellow line sucked magenta while in capping station

usually a bad cap, but also could be a blocked drain line.
I syringed drain line and pulled it...seems it just sucked while parked..

Capping station is draining
Thanks I will do that and see....I meant I think it sucked from spongeMost likely not damper.
Change caps. (Rubber seals at bottom of head.) The sponges at the bottom swell, touch the head and cause the unwanted ink transfer.
Level the printer.
Rarely, if one cartridge is full and the other is empty the ink can drain from one head to the other.
But I'm gonna by a maintance kit ...caps wipers dampers see what happens

You seem to want to change the dampers... If you don't do it right you can crack the manifold (ruin head). If ink goes where it shouldn't you can damage the head board or other things. Dampers aren't usually the culprit.
Everything so far points to caps and wipers.
Thank you
